Saving Our Planet? What We Need to Do Now to Combat Climate Challenges and Secure Our Future.
Did you miss our virtual Fireside Chat with Bill McKibben and Dr. Miranda Schreurs? Watch the recorded session here. October 28, 2021.
The main topics of discussion were current climate policy, the road to Glasgow and the responsibility of civil society to combat climate change
“It is not o.k. that 17-year-olds solve this problem,” McKibben says and introduces us to his brand-new grass-roots organization ThirdAct.org that mobilizes the boomer generation and might very well turn into a global movement as did the youth-oriented 350.org.
Bill McKibben is an author, educator, environmentalist and founder of http://350.org. He was awarded the Gandhi Peace Award in 2013 and the Right Livelihood Award, which is often referred to as the “Alternative Nobel Prize
Dr. Miranda Schreurs is Chair of Environmental and Climate Policy, Bavarian School of Public Policy at Technical University Munich (TU München).
